Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

We may use derivatives to partially offset our business exposure to foreign currency and interest rate risk on expected future cash flows and certain existing assets and liabilities. We do not use any of our derivative instruments for trading purposes.

We enter into master netting arrangements to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same counterparty. We do not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments under master netting arrangements. We also enter into collateral security agreements with certain of our counterparties to exchange cash collateral when the net fair value of certain derivative instruments fluctuates from contractually established thresholds.

Cash Flow Hedges

In countries outside the United States, we transact business in U.S. Dollars and in various other currencies. We may use foreign exchange option contracts and forward contracts to hedge a portion of our forecasted foreign currency denominated revenue and expenses. These foreign exchange contracts, carried at fair value, have maturities of up to 24 months.

As of August 30, 2024, we had net derivative losses on our foreign currency cash flow hedges expected to be recognized within the next 36 months, of which $52 million of net losses are expected to be recognized into revenue within the next 12 months.

Non-Designated Hedges

Our derivatives not designated as hedging instruments consist of foreign currency forward contracts that we primarily use to hedge monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies.

Fair value asset derivatives are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets for the current portion and other assets for the long-term portion, and fair value liability derivatives are included in accrued expenses for the current portion and other liabilities for the long-term portion on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of derivative instruments as of August 30, 2024 and December 1, 2023 were as follows:

Gains and losses on derivative instruments, net of tax, recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended August 30, 2024 were primarily associated with our foreign exchange forward contracts, for which we recognized $40 million of net losses in both periods. Gains and losses on derivative instruments, net of tax, for the three and nine months ended September 1, 2023 were immaterial.

For the three and nine months ended August 30, 2024 and September 1, 2023, the effects of derivative instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of income were immaterial.
